The CZ 455 American is ideal for vermin control as it is very accurate, low maintenance and relatively light weight making it easy to carry. The facility to swap barrels has been incorporated in the new design allowing the calibres to be changed inexpensively. A cold hammer forged barrel has been used as well as a receiver made from a single billet of high-quality steel to ensure unbeatable accuracy. The receiver has a 9-11mm dovetail machined onto the top allowing a scope to be mounted securely.
